THE ONES THAT YOU WANT

MusicTechwas invited over to London’s Metropolis Studios in May for the unveiling of Genelec’s new product line, The Ones – a family of new speakers which, with Genelec’s award-winning 8351s, form the world’s smallest three-way coaxial monitor lineup

Genelec’s two new speakers, the 8331 and 8341, join the larger 8351 to form a range now dubbed ‘The Ones’. The new speakers both share the same design and coaxial driver as the 8351, but come in a much smaller package, doing away with the previous constraints of coaxial point-source setups. The company claims that these new monitors will deliver precise imaging both on- and off-axis and neutral reproduction, meaning users can make mix decisions with confidence while also listening for longer. Coupled with Genelec’s Directivity Control Waveguides (DCWTM) and The Ones’ concealed dual-woofer design, it also promises less-coloured reflections.
